Chapter 483: Chapter 483: Dinner at the President Mansion (10)

“How is that possible?” Ning Ruixin was very surprised. “The First Lady is famously gentle and never embarrasses anyone in public.”

Upon hearing this, Su Zixi’s heart felt even more shattered.

The First Lady, who never embarrasses anyone in public, had actually rejected her without any mercy…

Great, He Jingyao had offended the President, and she had offended the First Lady—truly a match made in marriage.

Su Zixi thought with a bitter smile.

But thinking about how she had come with great ambitions to secure this project for He Jingyao, yet not only had she failed to gain the First Lady’s forgiveness, she had actually made matters worse…

Su Zixi felt so upset she was about to cry.

Seeing her like this, Ning Ruixin was both helpless and amused: “Don’t panic, just tell me exactly what happened, and I’ll help you analyze it.”

…

Chu Jinyu walked out of the banquet hall and returned to the living quarters with Han Ying.

“Madam, why did you say that just now?” Han Ying looked at her with a kind of helpless frustration. “I think you scared her so much she might start crying after you left.”

“Hmph…” Chu Jinyu was somewhat unhappy. “She didn’t recognize my voice and didn’t notice that the shoes I was wearing were hers.”

The second that girl opened her mouth, she recognized her!

Han Ying was truly helpless: “For such a reason… you still shouldn’t bully her like that!”

“Oh, I know what I’m doing,” Chu Jinyu waved her hand dismissively.

She had originally planned to wait for the little girl to recognize her and then give her an understanding wink and a knowing smile—how perfect that would have been.

But who knew that the girl did not recognize her at all! Such a careless little girl!

Han Ying was truly helpless. She knew although the First Lady appeared gentle and generous to outsiders, she had a bit of a quirky temper privately, and nobody knew when she would act up.

However, she also knew that the First Lady would not ignore the matter mentioned by Young Mistress He.

…

After listening to Su Zixi’s account, Ning Ruixin frowned in confusion: “Strange, there’s nothing wrong with what you said. The First Lady’s attitude… it just doesn’t make sense.”

Upon hearing this, Su Zixi felt even more dejected: “Could it be that the First Lady just dislikes me?”

“Uh…” Ning Ruixin hesitated.

Su Zixi looked distressed: “I knew I shouldn’t have come…”

“Indeed, you shouldn’t have come.” A smug voice suddenly rang out from behind her.

Su Zixi turned around in surprise: “Su Lianxi?”

With a face full of pleasure, Su Lianxi smiled, “What do you think this place is? Do you really think anyone can approach the First Lady? Oh, how laughable.”

Just a moment ago, when she saw Su Zixi finish that glass of blackcurrant juice and head towards the First Lady, her heart stopped out of fear. But she didn’t dare nor could she intervene; she could only watch anxiously as the two talked. However, for some reason, the First Lady soon turned and walked away, leaving Su Zixi looking utterly dejected.

No matter what she had said to the First Lady, the outcome clearly showed that she did not get a favorable result, and perhaps she was even despised by the First Lady.

Su Lianxi felt an extreme sense of satisfaction! If the drug in that glass of juice were to take effect, it would be even more perfect…

Listening to Su Lianxi’s smug words and thinking about how this woman had inexplicably won the favor of the First Lady, a suspicion suddenly sprang to mind: Could it be that Su Lianxi had spoken ill of her to the First Lady in advance?
